Imprint from colophon

Imprint given on title page as: En Sevilla: por Matias Clavijo, M. DC. XV

First printed in Seville in 1615 and sometimes includes an engraved frontispiece with portraits of Saints Ignatius of Loyola, Xavier, Peter, and Paul; it is unclear whether this Lima imprint was intended to contain this plate; a cursory look at the Seville imprint of the same year does not reveal the identical page misnumberings and includes indexes on 74 unnumbered pages following the text. The colophon in that edition clearly gives the imprint as Seville, suggesting that the Lima edition of 1615 is newly typeset in Lima by Francisco del Canto

A second part to this work with title "De el bien excellencias y obligaciones de el estado clerical y sacredotal, Segunda Parte" was printed by Matias Clavijo in Seville in 1620 (Medina, J.T. Biblioteca hispano-americana (1493-1810), 712)

"De las oras canonicas", p. 715-756, 758-763, 763-817, 3rd though 5th counts, has separate caption title
